This was not at all on "the list"
No stress ! Nobody missed the restock !
I was bored during site migration and started browsing the thread....which lead me to a stockist

Anyway....is the fit "right" for you guys? Pictures are with t-shirt only but I'll probably wear this one more with a sweat or UHF added.

I may manage M over this L for P2P, waist and opening, but fear the centimeters lost on shoulders and sleeves will make the sleeves too short.

It arrived
I think the sizing is top notch ! Thx here also to @JoshC for having measured the remaining shirts in my size to find me a perfect match
Always some issues for me with sleeves length, but here they fit perfectly imo, and the slightly shorter length versus the charts is really to my liking . Now I really need to wash this one carefully as there isn't really room for any shrinking.

IB suit incoming

Color is awesome and fit is exactly what I wanted, slightly longer than my 21oz to match other clothes length

Originally ordered the Medium that was really nicely fitting but it could not have moved one mm with washing, so I did take the Large at the end, which I finally prefer. Much more room, more comfy, and still a nice look, in my opinion at least

About the collar, at the end it does not bother me, but it's definitely not tight-tight; design choice I guess, and again it looks good I think because the collar is really thick.

Edit: sorry for the not so good picture quality, should also clean that mirror

@ZackB more fomo for you man

A bit on the long side for me, but the fabric is cool and other measurements are great and fitted.
Also very much like the "big" collar.

I had not yet the opportunity to wear it much because of the weather, but will be wearing heavily in the next SS season
It's my second IH jacket and the quality is incredible; the duck really impressed me (got the pants now too).

Little picture for those on the look for info,etc.
Surely helped me to see it worn by different body types.
I'm 180cm, 77kg approx.

It's the XL. The large was maybe a little bit better/tighter fit, but the sleeves were too short, and movement was restricted.
I kind of like the slightly more roomy look with this honestly.

Paired with the IH-555S-21

X-posting with the IHSH-420-PIN thread since there isn't much picture material for this one.

Thx to @Boit and @Travis2375 I also ordered this one and am very glad I did. I know all the hype seemed focused on the Hickory, that I also bought, but I'm starting to think I might low key prefer this one. The hickory is more subtle than this one, and I suppose then I'm not such a subtle guy

One remark since the tropical weather where I am made me notice...while the fabric is very light and p-e-r-f-e-c-t when it's 23-22C°, it's not imo that breathable when humidity is high. Just to add to the debate....
The picture with the 21oz was done pretty fast with the heat

@all: Thanks for all the answers ! I think I overthought this too much....the jacket is reaaaaaally great.
I wore it today, and all "worries" did vanish
Really impatient to see how it will develop over the years.

@Ben @JoshC : Thanks for all the info and pictures, you guys are the best
Really helps on imagining how it would fit.
You both look good in it

With the temperatures we have in Europe/UK now, it's maybe going to be a buy (+soak/wash) and store for a lot of people

@JoshC : How did you find the fit ? I see what @V-P means, waist seems more relaxed like a work shirt. I'm sure it's thought out well, hence my question.
How does it drape ? I don't really mind slightly wider, as I might do the "shaket" thing with this one more than often

Even MORE sunshine on this sunday morning

Edit: lol it's Monday

Seeing the color of this one modified due to it being still full of water after a wash, I thought it was worth a shot.
A chocolate brown duck would be incredible imo

While I started typing this message after having read this all thread, I start imagining all the people "watching" the thread, frantically looking at their phone/computer to see if this new message was the one a lot seem to be waiting for

Still a CPO virgin myself, and only discovered IH in 2024.
I browsed the full thread, and well... consider me in the queue for this one

The 13.5oz dobby was also on my radar, so I will probably also not financially recover from this

I must say I feel a bit sad as a 555 model lover
All non-denim pants of SS26 are wide in essence.

This fabric and colors looks really nice, and I definitely need something light for summer.
I bought IH chinos last year, but it's still too hot sometimes.

I know air circulation is paramount when hot, but painter/backer/wide paints are a bit baggy for me.
Hope IH wll do some more slim options in lighter fabric later down the line

@Tago-Mago Many thx ! Great infos there around the looms, very nice to read.

I had been buying Nudies before IH, and back then (2021-2022) they still had a lot of "japan" denim.

Recently I went looking out of curiosity, and saw a lot of their dry denim sourced from Turkey, and also Italy (candiami mill ?)

Maybe also related to this scarcity around quality mills/looms.
